At the beginning of June DEF and our partner charity in Colombia FEDUT enrolled 90 new students. Over the next seven months these youngsters will be trained as accounting and marketing assistants.
We are extremely grateful to Rodborough School for their recent fundraising efforts for DEF. The students raised an amazing £1,809 through their Mufti-day and sponsored poetry events. The proceeds will be spent on providing opportunities for disadvantaged youngsters in Surrey. Thank you Rodborough!
Our apprenticeship programme with our partner charity in Colombia continues to yield successful results for impoverished youngsters in Cali. Having just completed our 10th and 11th accountancy training courses we are pleased to announce that 25 students have been placed in formal employment, giving them a real chance to pursue a sustainable career in accountancy.
